September 2017 Beauty Favorites

September 2017 Beauty Favorites 




FACE:

I have quite a few "face" products for this month, so I wanted to show why I've loved using each of these this past month. 


I've been loving this Tarte Pro Glow To Go palette all summer long. I've even mentioned it in favorites before. It's really that good of a product! I love the highlights, but the contour shade has been my go-to lately even with other highlighters. This is the shade chisel and it really does that! I feel like this sharpens my cheekbones so well, but with more of a natural chisel. This product is only $23. For the quality the contour shade is worth that alone! 


Maybelline Fit me! Foundation Stick

I've been switching up (and loving) a lot of different foundations, but my love for this stick foundation has come back after going through my foundations and re-discovering it. I seem to reach for it more often like I used to. It applies so flawlessly and is also a fast foundation to apply. This is great for those days when you're running late!
 Ulta Beauty Brow Tint 

This is a new love of mine. I've had this in my drawer with my other eyebrow products for so long, but I haven't reached for it. Eyebrow products are so hit or miss with me and I absolutely hate messing up a look with one product. That's what has kept me from trying this product. I'm so glad I finally took that leap and tried it. It's also super fast to apply and blends well in the brows. I normally run a spoolie through my brows after the application. They're a little darker than I normally wear with my ABH Brow Definer (taupe) but this is still the lightest shade of this product. If you haven't tried it out yet, I would! Ulta Beauty products are pretty affordable!


Benefit Hoola Quickie Contour Stick

 This is just a sample I received and I've been trying it out a little at a time. The first time I tried it..It just didn't work for me. I used my normal bronzer brush to blend it out, but it was a little choppy. The next time I used it I really liked it, but I applied it the exact same way! This is hard for me, because it's like this product will only work with certain other products. Some days it looks great and others not so much. Bummer. Then, I was seeing all these people applying their cream contour and bronzers with their sponges and once using my beauty blender.. It's amazing! I haven't had any issues with it since! I applies well with all products that I've used. It just has to be blended out with a beauty blender!




Too Faced Hangover Primer

I had a sample of this in my drawer that I finally tried and I fell in love! I immediately bought a full size and I've literally been using this primer just about everyday! If you're looking for a good moisturizing (non silicone) primer, I would give this a go!



Wet n Wild Contour Palette 

The last face item I want to mention is this contour palette. I haven't been using this long, but I've loved the application so much that I had to include it! The lighter shade is nice to brighten the higher points of your face and I love the contour shade for all the contour areas. When I use this to define my cheek bones and slim my nose, it looks so good!



 LIPS:

I won't spend too long on these, but I've been loving pinky nude glosses, bold lipsticks, and moisturized lips this past month! These are the ones I wanted to include that I've worn a lot of.

 EYES:

This is sort of a "sneak peak" for a blog that's coming soon on these three palettes from Tarte. I've been using these nonstop to really test them out so I can blog a good review about each one. As you can see, they made my favorites. I've already went on and on about how much I love Tarte products, but I have enjoyed creating glam, everyday, and smoky eyes with these. I've also found my way back to Urban Decay's Perversion Mascara.

Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial

 Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial  I recently did a review the Tarte Make Believe in Yourself   eyeshadow palette. In that review I shared some looks that I created with it and will be sharing each of those tutorials with you. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I started this look by prepping my skin with First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I used this because my skin was so dry! I followed that up with Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear (with coconut and argan oil). I used that as my primer today.  I also used some color corrector concealer from the brand Aurora in the shade Pistachio. This is a new favorite of mine! I love how well it covers up any redness or blemishes. This was mentioned in my last Ipsy blog (I'll link below).  Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear Aurora Pro Color Corrector (Pistachio).  EOS lip balm I moisturized my lips with some  EOS lip balm and ...

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker I wasn't sure if I'd bring palettes back to my blog or not since they're discussed so much on my channel , but for sake of a pretty photo-op moment, I'm doing this. Ha!  I'm usually over the moon for every Jeffree Star Cosmetics launch and this one wasn't any different. I feel like only Jeffree could make a palette this full of insane colors and get away with it. With that being said when opening the Jawbreaker palette I can honestly say I did feel a little overwhelmed which is weird because I'm not one to shy away from color. I think it can still be challenging finding the right shades to put together to complement each other, but I can say once you dip into the shades that feeling goes away quickly. It's not as intimidating as you think it is. I created four colorful while still bring wearable looks with the Jawbreaker and had fun each day picking the palette up. I love being excited to do ...

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care Coola Sport White Tea Moisturizer SPF 50   $32 I took this gem with me on vacation and it did amazing! With an SPF 50 I didn’t have to worry about getting my face burnt. Who wants dry, red, and peeling skin when you have videos to film and blogs to get done? Not me! I took my skincare very seriously and this item made it super easy! Although, this has SPF is was just a moisturizer. It also felt just like a moisturizer, not oily, greasy, or film-like at all! It sank right into my skin and kept me protected. I can also say this worked with my sensitive skin well and didn't break me out at all! If you're fair, burn easily, and have sensitive skin I really recommend this product. Even if you don't, I recommend this as a great SPF moisturizer that everyone could benefit from.  Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator $29 I tried this product sometime last yea...
